Its customers include over 200 bookstores and other retailers, along with tens of thousands of internet buyers. It was selected as a vendor for the White House redecoration project in 2008. The company's restored reproductions draw on Library of Congress archives and use fine-art archival paper and pigmented inks intended to last for generations.

Lithography was invented in 1796, making inexpensive mass production of prints possible. In 1989, the Library of Congress launched the American Memory pilot project, which laid the foundation for the National Digital Library Program begun in 1995. That program digitizes selected collections documenting American cultural heritage.
